favoriteWhy we love house sitting

As a vacation rental owner, I take pride in keeping homes spotless. I love giving back as a guest and find caring for pets and gardens truly rewarding. I value the comfort of a real home and treat every house I stay in with the utmost care, respect, and dedication.

I have grown up with dogs and cared for them throughout my life until I moved out of my parents’ home in my twenties. Today, I am a devoted mother of two wonderful sons and a loving cat owner.

I am a self-made woman who is independent, curious, responsible, and highly reliable. I take pride in caring for homes and animals with respect and attention to detail.

Growing up in a village, I was raised alongside horses and sheep, which gave me a deep appreciation for the countryside and farm life.
As a child, I cared for a wide variety of pets, including canaries, budgies, zebra finches, guinea pigs, hamsters, fish and dogs. For the past three years, my two sons, my partner and I have shared our homes with our beloved cats. This lifelong journey with animals has taught me how to be attentive to their unique needs and personalities, ensuring they feel safe and well-loved in your absence.

We’ve just had Ursula take wonderful care of our dog Lola and our house while we were away overseas!

We came back to an immaculate house and I felt like Ursula had taken great care of everything as if it was her own home. We have already made mention that we would love to have them house sit again when we are next on leave if they are available. If your after a stress free peace of mind ...

The communication was amazing and I received regular photos of Lola even though it wasn’t expected. We came back to an immaculate house and I felt like Ursula had taken great care of everything as if it was her own home.

If your after a stress free peace of mind holiday, I would thoroughly recommend Ursula
